Slim in 2016 - My Back To Target Diary

Keeping my diary helped me massively when I did SW before and had great success. Since reaching and maintaining my target for a long time, I have slipped (Had a baby early 2015 but that's not an excuse!) so time to get back to target for my wedding in September!

I'm going to begin doing it from home as the timings of my local classes just aren't the most convenient for me, but if I'm not doing very well, I will make the effort to go to the class at a later stage.

This made enough for 2 adults and a small boy, plus leftovers for lunch the next day. This one is definitely a firm favourite! OH had rice and cheese with his, but I'm trying to stick to SP as much as possible on weeknights, so I went without, but just had a slightly bigger helping of the chilli.

Hello, here to subscribe . Your food diary looks really good. May I ask how much cottage cheese you eat for breakfast and do you use plain of flavoured ones? Not sure if I could survive on just cottage cheese and mandarines until lunch, I love big portions of food (which might be the reason for my slow losses )

I am also a fan of Rammstein btw , one of the coolest bands ever!

THIS is the cottage cheese I eat - it's absolutely delicious. It's a 300g tub and it would do me for three days so roughly 100g of it for breakfast with some fruit or veg. I love big portions too but not got a big appetite in the mornings. I often wondered about my portion sizes too because the recipes on the SW website/mag would typically say for 4 people and we would have it between two of us! I still have losses though so must be doing something right

I'm loving the news that Rammstein are recording a new album this year Can't wait for the concerts, the last one I went to in 2012 seems like a distant memory. I know they are touring this summer but I'm getting married in September so can't afford to go to any!

lol, 100 g of cottage cheese would not be enough for me at all, but understand that some people don't have a big appetite in the morning. It was only when I started with SW that I started eating breakfast, never used to . As for portion sizes... I will happily and easily eat portions meant for 2! I am so greedy sometimes . I always try and have my 1/3 of speedfood though and most days I only snack on fruit in between meals, guess that helps

Aw, hope you will get Rammstein tickets as a wedding present to attend a concert in future. I have seen them in Prague but that was ages ago. Brilliant show and the pyrotechnics were amazing

Me too! I used to skip breakfast and then come say 11am, I would be ravenous and end up stuffing myself with something really bad! This is really helping me stay on track though, hope you're having a good week so far xx
